We know where greatness starts — with you. We are a community of educators, scholars and learners committed to academic, creative and service excellence. Here, we value differences in personal experiences and perspectives; we ask the difficult questions; and we promote mutual understanding, inclusion, consciousness and action toward social justice. Join us to learn, grow and change the world.

We believe in the power of passionate, caring, connected and inquisitive individuals to actually make a difference. We empower everyone in the Roosevelt community to discover transformational experiences and become socially conscious citizens, future leaders in their professions and communities.

Here, students come together to change their lives and the world. Reflecting the ideals set forth since our founding in 1945, we are committed to academic, creative and service excellence. Difference broadens perspectives, so we seek and serve a diverse, promising student body from metropolitan Chicago and around the world.
